Do they all come through the receiver on the same colour?

Oh, I understand your question now. I'm not sure. Will check later and let you know.

Only challenge I've had with these is getting them aligned perfectly straight up. When I tighten them down, either just the whole alarm, or using the locking ring (I even bought some 3/8 nuts to use instead) - they tend to pull over to one side, presumably from the thread somehow?

I'm probably missing something and these are the first new alarms I've had in ~20 years (replacing my old delkims) so have never seen this before. When I measure on my 3 rod bars, the gap between 1-2 and 2-3 is at best almost 1 cm out. When you have 3 rods out it drives me nuts as mismatch in gap is obvious.

Any ideas?
From bar up I have plastic hockey stick, rubber o-ring, locking nut then alarm.

Just bought a new 2 + 1 set for € 125, was the last set of a promotion (Bol.com)

Wanted to buy the Nash S5R or R3 set first (have the Nash S5 atm), a youtuber said he rated Micron X higher than Sr5, will see next week.

I didn't notice it on single sticks, but this is now second set of bars I've tried them on (summit first time and gardner now) and has been same issue on both.

I'll try some electrical tape on the thread and see if that helps.

I also checked and alarm led colour is matched on receiver. So all green for example on heads = all green on receiver.

Hi All,

Any further reviews on these alarms now you've had them a while?

Battery life etc?

Recommended?

Thanks!

As below, good alarms.
I've probably done 20 nights and days, and the receiver is still showing batteries at 'full' level.
In real life, on the bank, the receiver range is over 200m.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
